I feel like soup season is here in full force. And ohhhh man, do I love me some soup.

Today’s post is sponsored by Boulder Organic! Product opinions are always my own. If I didn’t love it, you wouldn’t hear about it.Thank you for supporting the occasional sponsored post that helps fund all the deliciousness + behind the scenes action you see here.

I haven’t really had the chance to make much soup yet this season, but I’ve definitely been eating my fair share. Boulder Organic! recently came to me asking if I’d like to try out there soups and share them with you on the blog through a giveaway. I’m extremely selective when working with companies and usually have an immediate feeling if it’s someone I want to support and tell you guys about. With Boulder Organic! I answered YES for these reasons:

the soups are ALL organic and ALL certified gluten-free

they are also all non-GMO

the plastic containers are BPA-free

most of the soups are vegetarian and a few are also vegan

they’re a Boulder company which is always super fun since I live nearby

they use fresh, high-quality ingredients and the soups definitely taste homemade

I love supporting companies who pay attention and care about ingredients and nutrition

You may have even heard of this soup company before, as it was formerly known as Boulder Soup Works. They’re currently undergoing re-branding and now have a whole new look! I’m kind of in love with the new packaging [above].

Do you know how much fun it is to have a fridge full of different flavored soups to try out? Here were my thoughts:

Garden Minestrone [vegan] Possibly my favorite. The vegetable and fresh herb flavors were great. The tomato broth was thin as it should be and the vegetables were plentiful. Also, this minestrone uses potatoes instead of noodles to keep it GF. Loved that!

Potato Leek [vegetarian] Creamy and flavorful, without an overpowering leek flavor. This soup was filling while not being loaded down with cream.

Golden Quinoa and Kale Soup [vegan] The texture/consistency of this was fantastic. There was a lot of quinoa, so it was quite thick. It had a fabulous garden-herb fresh flavor.

Red Lentil Dahl [vegan] This is probably my second favorite. The dahl was thick and extremely hearty with the perfect amount of flavor. The whole cumin seeds were my favorite part and really made it seem homemade!

While I try to make all of our weekday breakfasts, lunches, and dinners as from-scratch as possible, sometimes it just doesn’t happen. You know, because, life. It happens to everyone. So it’s always nice to know that there are products out there you can feel good about buying and eating on those busy nights.

We love adding quick + simple things like you see below to round out the meal:

The other thing to note about Boulder Organic! is that all of their soups are fresh and don’t include any preservatives. You’ll find them in the refrigerated section of your store near the deli or prepared foods area. They are stable in the fridge for a few months and once open need to be eaten in about 3-4 days.

I can’t even tell you how much more flavorful these soups are than anything I’ve eaten from a can.

And now you’ll get to see for yourselves!! Boulder Organic! is hosting a sweet giveaway with three winners! Check out the details below.

Leave a comment below telling me which of the Boulder Organic! Soups you’d try first and your favorite soup side dish. My favorite soup is their Garden Minestrone with a buttery grilled cheese on the side. The giveaway ends Friday, November 7th at 5pm EST.

Hope this helps with your weekend hangover.

Also, despite my ranting of being terrible at Halloween, I think Chris and I finally pulled it off a successful costume idea. I pieced our outfits together an hour before a party with $6 kids t-shirts, $7 track pants Chris cut into shorts, $2 fabric for the capes + headbands, and bathing suit bottoms I had at home. Cheap, easy, and hilarious.
